Sinopse

Unending love, or love dies, on repeat like it’s endless is a choreography that reflects on the relations of desire, dance, love (as communality), loss and time. The work dwells in the states of perception at the threshold of mourning, hope and celebration. A radiant listening that stems from grief and contends with witnessing the state of transit from life to death. Meanings and perceptions, swell, undo and fragment while the choreography undertakes the invention of micro-grammars of connection. The piece manifests relational forms of being-with and for one another, in spite of and in resistance to overwhelming architectures of violence. The work is performed in various constellations, between one to four performers.

This is a durational performance, where audience is free to move around, enter and exit the room.

Author's bio text

Alex Baczyński-Jenkins is an artist and choreographer engaging with queer affect, embodiment and relationality. Through gesture, collectivity, touch and sensuality, his practice unfolds structures and politics of desire. Relationality is present in the dialogical ways in which the work is developed and performed as well as in the materials and poetics it invokes. This includes tracing relations between sensation and sociality, embodied expression and alienation, the textures of everyday experience, the utopian and latent queer histories. He approaches choreography as a way of reflecting on the matter of feeling, perception and collective emergence, while indulging in other ways of experiencing memory, time and change. He is co-founder of Kem, a Warsaw based queer feminist collective focused on choreography, performance and sound at the interface with social practice. Through various experimental formats and community building, Kem engages in critical intimacy and queer pleasure.
